Growers of Good from the Beginning

For over 130 years, we've been dedicated to growing the highest quality fruits and vegetables. We grow with care on farms, many of which are family farms that have been with us for generations. Meet some of our farmers below.

Last year, we worked with more than 500 family farms to deliver more than 517,000 tons of vegetables across the United States. It all starts with a seed that is carefully cultivated using traditional breeding methods. No GMOs here - just 130 years of patience and farmer know-how. These superior seeds are then shared with each of the over 500 partner growers. Many are third-, fourth-, and fifth-generation farms, some of which we've been working with for more than 100 years. 95% of the vegetables grown on these farms will travel less than 75 miles to canning facilities - meaning all vegetables are picked and packed within hours. The goal is to try to lock in freshness as soon as humanly possible.
